[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I always follow what goes on in Takoma Park because it exposes the true hypocrisy of Montgomery County government, because it’s where the county politicians and their supporters live. And what we see now is that they are going tough on crime in their neighborhood while preventing that same tough on crime policing throughout the rest of the county. This is how you know that these people don’t believe their own b.s. And it’s the same about everything.

It seems more ineffective than tough. From the Takoma PD Chief:

"Long-term, we must take a holistic approach to addressing the causes of criminal activity. Until we address these underlying issues, lack of education, food security, jobs, etc., the cycle of crime and violence will continue. The police alone cannot solve the problem. We look forward to the City implementing some of the recommendations made by the Takoma Park Reimaging Public Safety Task Force that help address these issues and continuing to look for ways to address the root causes of criminal behavior."

How is addressing poverty in Takoma Park MD going to do anything to prevent crime from DC juveniles? What is needed are increased legislated sentencing guidelines. Unfortunately, DCPD has a policy of minimal cooperation with surrounding jurisdictions, including Montgomery County and Takoma Park Police Departments.[/quote]
Conveniently don’t mention where the chief says that they are increasing patrols, making more arrests and asking neighbors to aggressively report anything suspicious. He just throws that nonsense at the end to appease liberal sensibilities. [/quote]
